Matthew on Nostr: Today, I went a different way I went towards a lilac-rising sun That took my breath ...
Today, I went a different way
I went towards a lilac-rising sun
That took my breath away.
Her face was shining
And I could smell sweet spices
Rising in her light
And I wept a little
At the beauty,
So glad I was to see the sun
After these days of grey.
Two swans,
each the mirror
Of the other
Wild and free,
Meet at eyes-meet,
gently
Utterly themselves,
Utterly present
Each a gallant ship,
Sailing together
Each loved by the other.
